West Ignoring Russia?

In fact West knows well that Russia exists and in some limited way is successor of Ex-USSR, latter's wealth, technology, huge natural and public property and has enough power to demand share in world's market and thus threat to USA/NATO's hegemony!----------- World is re-entering into bipolarity and is destroying the concept of "New World Order", where few countries under leadership of USA would loot the rest with impunity!! Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya was invaded and captured but Syria was a rude shock! Revenge and desire to teach Russia a lesson opened the Ukraine front with a puppet government established there. Now taken to the limit, Russia has woken up with right strategy to counter the USA's onslaught; China, BRICS, Latin America and other many proud countries have joined the move. USA is facing the toughest time after Stalin's death and its "cool" leaders have lost mental balance! Obama is acting like a lost street cur and to worsen the situation, the longest economic recession in the world has sharpened the contradiction in USA and outside in its camps!---------- This is the opportunity for all progressive, revolutionary forces to unite, irrespective of religion, nationalities to further weaken the imperialist forces! I am thankful to the man, who started this page and gave me also a chance to meet all of you and raise hope for revolution and final emancipation of human kind!!!!! Hail Socialism!!!

BRICS- New Era!!


BRICS A New Era!

 

 

BRICS today is a reality, despite contradictions among its partners, some even irreconcilable in the present International scenario! After its inception, it has become powerful economically, at least in its projection, even though it failed to help each other in one of the longest recession. Politically it has failed so far to project its might vis-à-vis US and its allies due some of its member’s weaknesses towards the USA, especially from India and partially by South Africa. Another 3 countries have shown their resilience for independent Sovereign policy, like Brazil, who is part of UNASUR, showed its anger against the USA PRISM, the criminal spying when its President rebuffed Obama openly where as India, reacted with its tail in its back! Russia is just short of declaring war against USA/NATO sponsored terrorism by Ukraine! China is either too cool or shrewdest partner, of all who is spreading its wing for more share of the world market!!

BRICS FORMATION

BRIC was formed on 16 June, 2009 and once South Africa joined in 2010, it became BRICS! Its combined population is 3 Billion and holds approximately 20 trillion dollars’ worth GDP!

Since its inception, BRICS has marched forward economically and politically though its political power is undermined by Indian Governments’ covert and overt support of US and allies. Not only GOI supports US and its criminal spying PRISM, but even, Narendra Modi, PM called Snowden a traitor! Left parties did oppose PRISM, but only to log their opposition to the USA imperialism and never criticised GOI for denying asylum to Snowden. Only party to support Snowden was AAP and Arvind Kejriwal!

BRICS CHALLENGES UNIPOLAR WORLD!

When I talked about the International situation above, it meant a strong unipolar world, though there are contradiction in its unity and which is widening, but it is fact that to oppose US and its allies militarily, no one yet dares. Syria is the latest example, after Libya where US and allies were about to declare war openly, but diplomacy of Russia, China, Iran and due its own vulnerability and opposition by the world citizens deterred the war!

Biggest chink in US/NATO allies surfaced over Ukraine where Germany and France preferred to continue bilateral trade with Russia, rather join US’s sponsored sanctions against Russia! Are these signs of US Empire crumbling?

It would not be out of context to mention that the world citizens are more conscious today politically than ever in the recent past due the longest recession in its history of 200 years! Workers, peasants, common man from EU, US, UNASUR, many countries of Asia led by Bangladesh and even some AU have been rising more than economical demand than for political goal, even asking for their right in governance! The last part is evident by the implementation of SC’s verdict against convicted law makers in India due people’s resistance against its liquidation!

Coming back to BRICS, we must see its gains in recent past to understand its value in global politics!

From BRICS information centre:-

While the concept “BRICS” was first created by Jim O’Neill Goldman Sachs to refer to the investment opportunities of the rising emerging economies, the leaders’ meetings transcend the financial context to embrace a wide range of summit-level issues relating to global governance, such as development, peace and security, energy and climate change, and social issues.

This speaks volume of its march forward from simple economic forum to a formidable political entity! Economically, aim to have a development bank worth more than 4.5 trillion USD is a landmark outside World and Asian bank, which concerns us! Now they succeeded in forming 100 Billion USD worth Development Bank and same amount of Currency Reserve in 2014 BRICS meet in Brazil!!

BRICS assertion on International arena could have been more assertive on grounding of Bolivian airplane carrying President on suspicion of carrying Snowden but it chose to maintain silence, though Brazil part of UNASUR was vocal and joined its brother nations to denounce US and its hegemonic policy.

Media Note on the Meeting of BRICS, 2013 Foreign Ministers

 On September 26, 2013, in New York foreign minister issued a communique for Syrian peace, Middle East peace process, Cyber Security in the back drop of Snowden’s exposure of NSA of US. Yes the entire communique sounded like that of some NGO’s statement, yet as far as BRICS was concerned there was some progress!

BRICS Own Internet

Meanwhile, BRICS companies are working to create a "new Internet".

In particular, Brazil has been reported to be building a "BRICS cable" that will create an independent link between Brazil, South Africa, India, China and Russia, in order to bypass NSA cables and avoid being spied.

The cable is set to go from the Brazilian town of Fortaleza to the Russian town of Vladivostok via Cape Town, Chennai and Shantou.

The length of the fibre-optic cable will be almost 35,000 kilometres, making it one of the most ambitious underwater telecom projects ever attempted.

Earlier, most of the BRICS countries joined talks to hammer out a UN resolution that would condemn “indiscriminate” and “extra-territorial” surveillance, and ensure “independent oversight” of electronic monitoring.

Will Indian Government of Congress or BJP follow? It’s doubtful, but people’s unity for an independent foreign policy may force it to do so! Was there any talk on this issue in today’s BRICS meet, 2014?

Recent incidents of Crimea referendum to secede from Ukraine and join Russia was the biggest event on an international level in recent times, where the USA and the allied sanctioned Russia on many fronts including throwing it out of G-20! India supported Russia, may be due its past of merging Sikkim into itself, though on different ground, but it’s a very positive move towards strengthening BRICS and re-creation of bi-polar world!

Incidentally, this Crimea incident has started beginning of a new world order that is the end of uni-polar to bi-polar or even the multi polar world. Here Russia seems to be more inclined to China and less to India due latter’s economic weakness and foreign policy. We need to be with Russia to hope for a better future for ourselves and BRICS.

FUTURE of BRICS

Economic plan of BRICS is clear, which is to participate vigorously in redistribution in the world market. This is evident by Chinese “intrusion” in African market followed by India, Brazil where USA, France and other European countries are finding it difficult to maintain their earlier level of profit even militarily.  Russia after disintegration of the USSR is trying to recover some of its lost glory, which again is very difficult due to its internal problem of unemployment, racists view against settlers, undemocratic laws against its own populations, etc., and it effects on its foreign policy with multiplied force, though Russians are more united presently with their government on Ukraine issue!

The USA and allies are aware of the pressure of BRICS economically, but the longest recession and their internal fight for share in the world market with their own EU partners has weakened them enough and cannot stop the other international players.

It will not be wrong to say that the members of BRICS, who individually failed to garner market, are united to assert their capabilities to produce commodities, finance capital and sell it in the established Imperialists’ den! 

Economy is base of Politics and as we have seen above, BRICS though weak politically, but has started asserting its presence at various forums. Syria is the example, where its interference was must to break US and allies grand strategy of capturing the entire oil producing Middle East and Arab countries.

Finally, I must not lengthen this article, but still say that the economic base of BRICS will also usher a new cultural and social base of its countries and will positively affect their political and military strength and global reach. Hope India after new government will have some pride in itself and will be able to assert her sovereignty and better economy like China and make BRICS stronger and not far behind G8 and G20!

People of India, especially youths, are not much interested in international affairs, let alone be BRICS. However, many young men, whom I came across, while canvassing in the election and now, were not only aware of the existence of BRICS but also very hopeful of its future and showed their desire to take Iran in its fold!!

Future of Indian Revolution!

I am getting a weird feeling these days. I had been criticising political parties for their criminal and corrupt activities, their closeness to Ambani, Adani for their interest and commission in lieu, their anti people acts, them looting our national wealth and making MNCs too join in this loot for more money! Comparing Congress and BJP who have same economic and foreign policies and are equally corrupt and help each other, like retaining Vadra's privileges in lieu of letting Modi off hook for his role in 2002 riots, even having known all his crimes through CBI! ETC!!!                           What is the outcome? AAP did well by managing 1 Crore votes, approx. 2 % of polled but failed to break the cycle of corrupt and criminal rulers; that is by Congress, BJP or Third Front! Big corporates retained their hold on state and its machinery in 1977 and now as well. Few big names like Anna or even Ramdev, Kiran Bedi etc were "incorporated" in the present system and whole system of exploitation, loot continues.                   
 Revolutionary flame does not wait for any society, like CB clouds' it did come spontaneously, may be with the help of some organisations like IAC,  retained a bit by AAP but lost its bearing, or was made to do so by huge, huge propaganda by the controlled media, foreign agencies and our own corrupt parties who combined to stop the rise of mass and succeeded a bit. Only time will tell, how much AAP is able to retain the anger of mass!!           So what is my weird feeling? Is it possible to do a revolution from within the system with the tools of system to change it, forget about annihilating the rotten system? Yes, I know all the fight to change has to be done within the system, but with same parliament, police, judiciary existing? Remember the case of Allende of Chile? He did succeed in forming the government through election but in less than 3 years, US executed coup de tat through military because of his pro people activity, which was causing huge loss or reduced profit to US companies!!  
 But is this not India? What great difference we have? We are bigger and 'democratic'?       Yes, this is my dilemma! AAP formed government in Delhi but could not control the state machinery as they were with old system, though, it still did many good things to us, like electricity, water, etc! At India level? Things may not be much different, or may be tougher. So, will the political revolution succeed with old machinery existing, opposing people's movement and even if government is formed, will it be allowed to function as it will like to be? Political assassinations are not common in India but in special cases it may happen, even military take over possible to thwart the existing control over natural wealth, market and public property by big corporates and MNCs!            
So should we change our revolutionary strategy? If we know for sure that if present revolution is not likely to succeed, let us change our strategy now, rather wait for it to fail!

अमेरिका: दुनिया का सबसे रुग्‍ण और अपराधग्रस्‍त समाज

सिर्फ 20वीं शताब्‍दी के उत्‍तरार्द्ध के पचास वर्षों में अमेरिका ने पूरी दुनिया के विभिन्‍न हिस्‍सों में युद्ध थोपकर, हमले करके, बमबारी करके और कठपुतली सैनिक तानाशाहों तथा आतंकवादी गिरोहों की हत्‍यारी कार्रवाइयों को शह देकर जितनी तबाही मचायी है, उतनी औपनिवेशिक ताक़तों ने सौ सालों के अन्‍दर भी नहीं मचायी। लेकिन अमेरिकी समाज की अन्‍दरूनी तस्‍वीर भी उतनी ही भयावह है। दुनिया के सबसे ख़र्चीले और विलासी समाज में न केवल अमीरी-ग़रीबी की खाई चौड़ी है और ग़रीबों की ज़ि‍न्‍दगी ग़रीब देशों जैसी ही नारकीय है, बल्कि यह दुनिया का सबसे अधिक अपराधग्रस्‍त और आत्मिक रूप से रुग्‍ण समाज है।
अमेरिका में प्रतिवर्ष औसतन 1करोड़ 20लाख अपराध होते हैं। दुनिया के किसी भी देश में सालाना साठ लाख से अधिक अपराध नहीं होते। दुनिया में सबसे अधिक रिपोर्टेड अपराधों वाले शीर्षस्‍थ दस देश ये हैं:
2011 में प्रति एक लाख आबादी पर अपराधों की संख्‍या
अमेरिका – 12,408,899
जर्मनी – 2,112,843
फ्रांस – 1,172,547
रूसी संघ – 1,041,340
इटली – 900,870
कनाडा – 628,920
चीले – 611,322
पोलैण्‍ड – 521,942
स्‍पेन – 377,965
नीदरलैण्‍ड्स -372,305
अमेरिका में 10 लाख लोग किसी न किसी अपराधी गिरोह के सदस्‍य हैं।
अमेरिका में 22लाख लोग जेलों में बंद है। कैदियों की संख्‍या के मामले में अमेरिका दुनिया में पहले स्‍थान पर है। आबादी में कैदियों के प्रतिशत अनुपात के हिसाब से भी यह दुनिया में पहले स्‍थान पर है। अमेरिका में दुनिया की 5 प्रतिशत आबादी रहती है, पर दुनिया के 25प्रतिशत सज़ायाफ़्ता कैदी सिर्फ अमेरिकी जेलों में रहते हैं। वहाँ की प्रति एक लाख आबादी में से 730 जेल हैं।
दुनिया में सबसे अधिक जेलें अमेरिका में हैं। वहाँ 4,575 जेलें हैं। दूसरे नम्‍बर पर रूस है जहाँ 1,029 जेलें हैं।
अमेरिका में हर वर्ष औसतन 48लाख स्त्रियाँ अपने पति, प्रेमी या मित्र द्वारा यौन-आक्रमण या बलात्‍कार की शिकार होती हैं। प्रति दिन औसतन तीन स्त्रियों की उनके पति, प्रेमी या मित्र द्वारा हत्‍या कर दी जाती है। वहाँ प्रतिदिन औसतन नौ स्त्रियों की हत्‍या होती है। सिर्फ़ वर्ष 2006 के दौरान अमेरिका में 2,32,960 स्त्रियाँ बलात्‍कार या यौन हमले का शिकार हुईं।
अमेरिका में वेश्‍यावृत्ति सालाना 14अरब डॉलर का धंधा है। वहाँ (रोड प्रांत को छोड़कर) वेश्‍यावृत्ति प्रतिबंधित है, पर पुलिस रिकार्ड के मुताबिक प्रति एक लाख पर 23 वेश्‍याएँ हैं। वास्‍तविक संख्‍या इससे कई गुना अधिक है। बाल-वेश्‍यावृत्ति और पुरुष वेश्‍यावृत्ति भी वहाँ हर वर्ष तेजी से बढ़ रही है। अमेरिका पोर्न सामग्री का सबसे बड़ा उत्‍पादक और ख़रीदार है। वहाँ के पोर्न-उद्योग (पोर्न फिल्‍में, वीडियो, इण्‍टरनेट, पत्रिकाएँ, ‘पे-पर-व्‍यू’, सेलफोन्‍स) की सालाना शुद्ध कमाई औसत 4अरब 30 करोड़ डॉलर है।

Anna Praises Modi: Criticises AK!

I wish to start with my own article- http://www.hastakshep.com/english/opinion/2014/03/17/anna-supports-mamta-fall-of-anna#.U4gOV2brZy0 (Anna supports Mamta, Fall of Anna)

And now: - Anna praises Modi government, says Kejriwal got ‘carried away’! http://indianexpress.com/article/india/politics/anna-praises-modi-govt-says-kejriwal-got-carried-away/
Looking back, Anna always harmed AAP. Remember, his tirade against AK and AAP just few days before Delhi VS election, where he said, ‘donation money’ was with AK and he has not settled the account yet? That was absolutely false and media, BJP, Congress utilised that statement maximum to belittle the mass movement.
Later he supported Mamta Banerjee as PM candidate, which I have elaborated in the above quoted article, but Anna backtracked sooner than later, probably on the advice of his inner circle who were closely working with BJP and corporates, like VK Singh, Kiran Bedi etc. as Mamta’s rise was likely to harm Modi more than AK!

Now when AAP needs maximum support and favourable situation to revive its cadres’ morale, strengthen party’s organisation, philosophies before the next election, regain people’s faith; the corporates’ advisors thought it necessary to attack Arvind Kejriwal at this crucial point, so that his party’s capabilities to revive is demolished and corporates’ control over the government and our natural wealth, market remains unchallenged! Anna obliged!!
In the final analysis, Anna, even if he did not plan to support the RSS plot to capture power with the help of our corporate and foreign investors but surely now he is supporting their move consciously. I quote AK “Anna is misadvised”; is wrong, we must understand that Anna Hazare is not a child, he has seen enough politics and is responsible as a mass leader whatever he says or does! Whatever, his action is harming people’s unity against corporates’ assisted corrupt system!
Sounds harsh for most of the JLPB movement supporters, but revolution, a serious business for the people, demands concrete analysis of concrete situation for its success and there is nothing like being harsh to distractive move!

Anna has deserted the mass movement and helped degrade the rare chance of India to be free of corruption, crime, unemployment after 1974-77 rise! AAP and its leader AK, youths, volunteers must understand this big vicious circle of RSS, corporates, imperialists and BJP, Congress to loot the people. Greatest leaders in the past have ditched mass movement world over for various reasons like commission, lack of understanding of revolution, politics, economy, unable to resist greed of becoming darling of corporates’ media(memory of Anna writing to Rajnath Singh, seeking his help to erect his own statue in UP is fresh), or whatever they may be! They must be dumped as soon as possible to save the scatterings of the revolutionary flame!

Modi takes the reins of India’s government

Modi takes the reins of India’s government



https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2014/05/28/indi-m28.html



Simple but accurate analysis of rise of rightist forces in India. Incidentally, Congress and BJP do not have any qualitative difference, may be quantitatively they differ. So they complement each other for retaining power of Corporate world and checks power passing to pro people party!

I differ on you prefixing Stalinist to CPI/CPM as you yourself agree, these parties supported Congress policy of pro Corporate policy in name of keeping communal forces like BJP away from the power, though in last year, Congress was surviving without these "Lefts".

Please see my article on different platform-

Shazia Ilmi Quits AAP


I had an opportunity to hear Shazia Ilmi in Feb, 2014 in Constitutional club, Delhi, where the central committee meeting was on. Her topic, I am not sure, but that time she was talking on nonviolence and was at pains to explain her audience what it means? Thinking bad about others is violence, forget about verbal and physical violence, and in turn, her talk was more religious than political and I could make out loss of interest in the audience.

Well I am not here to recount her thought process or ideology. She was one of the founder members of AAP. Her effort to get into Delhi VS or LS had failed. After not so good show by AAP where it polled approximately 2% of total votes cast and managed 4 MPs, where it was expected to rise as a major force, led to major bickering in AAP.

AAP, though declared time and again by AK that it was neither left nor right, has left orientation. This inclination, I term as ‘natural selection’ by this party due its stand not only against corruption, say JLPB, but also with peasants, workers, contract labourers, rag pickers etc and as such was against any form of exploitation by the present capitalist system, where women are the worst sufferers. It will not be out of context to remind readers that AAP was not against capitalism, but against evils of capitalism that is crony capitalism.

Accordingly, AAP adopted “Democratic Centralism” wittingly or unwittingly for its organizational work, which is developed by the Leftist parties and in short it means (and is not in synch with Swaraj) -  

1. All directing bodies of the Party, from top to bottom, shall be elected.

2. Party bodies shall give periodical accounts of their activities to their respective Party organizations.

3. That there shall be strict Party discipline and the subordination of the minority to the majority.

4. That all decisions of higher bodies shall be absolutely binding on lower bodies and on all Party members.

 

What it means in short is that, decision will be taken by the party at all levels and once taken will be binding on all members, minorities. If in disagreement, there may be debate and if not agreed by the party, old decision will hold and if some members still disagree, they are to follow party line or quit the party. This sounds undemocratic especially to AAP volunteers but that’s the reality.

Here is one example; Captain Gopinath joined AAP and later opposed its stand on FDI! This was wrong on the part of Gopinath, he should have known the party line on FDI and had no right to oppose it once being implemented. By the way, stand on FDI was not taken by discussion among the members, but was decided at the time of its launch by its founding members and those who wanted to join the party, had to accept it.

Second example is that of forming of the Delhi government, where the AAP went to the people to decide where to form it or not. Leaving the government was the decision of central committee.

Shazia Ilmi failed to grasp this. As far as Binni was concerned, was an opportunist and quit as he was not getting what he demanded. Shazia, a committed member of AAP, failed to understand the internal democratic functioning. She was disheartened by the defeat of AAP, sadly, deserted it at a time when AAP is passing through a bad time, AK in jail, many members and volunteers are angry with its performance. Worst, she blamed the central leadership of dictatorship, where she got all supports when there was farce sting operation against her and her communal remark and herself was part of the central leadership!!

The episode of Shazia Ilmi was big enough to be highlighted in almost all media and many other party representatives gleefully passed sarcastic remarks on ‘inner fight’ of AAP. These are the same people who discarded AAP as non-existent and said there was no need to discuss about it further.

Well, AAP has still time to collect its cadres, have a basic constitution on organisation, ideology, and politics written and explained. Swaraj demands lower to top, but hardly any downward movement, whereas democratic centralism is the mobility of decision both ways (Compare it with undemocratic organisational set up of Congress, BJP and any other regional parties)! This is not a huge contradiction, but due lack of understanding, such embarrassing moments are followed and must be addressed to lead the mass for better India!

NOTA's Far Raching Effect on Indian Democracy!!


NOTA (None of the above) got more than 60 lakhs, which is 1% of total votes, more than many other political parties! 4.4 lakhs Gujarat voters pressed NOTA button, maximum of them from rural areas, yes not from urban Gujarat!

This meant, these voters determined, got ready, went to the booth, got into the queue, reached polling machine, and pressed NOTA button.

In recently conducted Vidhan Sabha election in 6 states, number of NOTA votes were 14 lakhs! That indicates, ratio wise, number of NOTA voters relatively did not increase on all India level, yet this number is alarming. This is more relevant, when one understands the teeth less NOTA. SC had rejected the plea to make NOTA more powerful by rejecting the winner if he gets less than NOTA votes, and go for fresh election.

Something new is emerging in Indian democracy. Even if NOTA remains powerless, its effect will be telling on the “biggest democratic country in the world”, as its number will rise. Legally Indian politicians and their financiers, namely the big corporates and MNCs/FDIs, electronic media, etc will still claim victory of democracy but morally they will be rejected by the people. Worse, even separatists, terrorists will join and may even force many individuals to refrain from voting and weaken our parliamentary democracy, which is already hollow due extreme corruption, crime, notwithstanding the present victory of BJP!

This is alarming, not for the political parties as they are like ostrich and have become more arrogant after failure of rise of people in 2012 for JLPB and now the failure of AAP to emerge as an alternate, but for the people themselves who want a new India, which must provide employment, respectful life to them!

In short, NOTA is an instrument in the hands of people of India to reject the parliamentary democracy, reject the present system without even uniting under some revolutionary party and making a path for people’s democracy! This is not day dreaming, but very soon, may be in the present Vidhan Sabha election, NOTA may emerge as the 3rd largest party and threaten the very foundation of pseudo Indian democracy!!

Should not the true democratic parties demand for empowering NOTA, that is, reject victory of any candidate if he polls less than the mighty NOTA?

Lessons of Election 2014/India


The great festival of “Democracy” that is election, is over. Result is out. BJP under leadership of Narendra Modi is likely to form government in Delhi without hitch. Whether, this was expected or not, is an entirely different matter and am not interested to dwell on this as 100s, no 1000s of such analysis is already available on various media, news channels, blogs and will continue to flood them for weeks to come.

What did common man get? AAP whatever did was on expected line, though the result is not commensurate with its effort. They may blame this on the corporate world and their “Chaukidars” Congress, BJP and their various allies directly or indirectly and corporates’ controlled media. Left is almost washed out due Right’s onslaught, though it is unimaginable, at a time when the working class is in utter destitute due very high inflation, unemployment, corruption and crime by the state, its machinery and their top and lower ranking officials during the world’s longest recession. Anyway, this is Left’s headache to do “Concrete analysis of concrete situation”.

So, what did the common man, peasants and workers get in this holiest feast of Indian Democracy, called the biggest democratic country in the world? Just to remind our readers, we house 10 Crore child labours in fields, highway hotels/Dhabas and houses as helpers rather in schools, 8 Crore roofless ‘humans’ and 2 Crore women who sell their bodies to get basic subsidies and now to ‘improve’ their status we have stamped them as ‘sex workers’.

What is the situation of our big and medium class corporate? GDP, GNP, National income growth is less than 5%. Does this mean our people’s income is rising at this slow pace? NO! The growth rate of our corporate or their profit rate has gone down. This is due global economy going into recession since 2008 and unlike in the past, there is no sign of recovery, forget about a boom. Export of natural wealth, like ore, raw material, which ‘belongs to them’ has crumbled and the available market has shrunk abroad and at home, making their profit to shrink further. This has also affected INR crashing against USD and other major currencies.

So, all the drama by the oppositions was against this falling “GDP” as their bosses were not happy. The ruling party was already discarded by the corporates which wanted a ‘strong’, pro capital and anti-workers policy firmly to be implemented! Eye opening example is Egypt!! Mass rising, ruler removed, election followed, people’s government formed, ‘progressive forces’ rising against the new government to safeguard the revolution from the religious clichés, Army takes over and finally state machinery including judiciary butchers 100s of protesters, 1000s of workers are put behind bars, close to 1000 protesters are sentenced to death, ‘profit rate’ of corporate rises, Egypt and USA are happy!!!!!

The present rise of people, all over India, was spontaneous with Anna and his team, government had to bow and promise for strong JLPB, even though this was not a panacea for their miseries, but sooner than later, government and opposition’s treacheries were exposed. Movement was to be usurped by the RSS and BJP as demanded by their common masters, the Corporations; Congress was to be dumped for at least 5 years, Arvind Kejriwal sensed this diversion, formed AAP and Delhi VS election followed, minority government formed, fell and in due course the present election followed and the result is in front of us.

It’s not AAP which lost the battle, but it’s the people who lost the war. Once again, they found their interest in religion, caste, creed, region and worse in a personality cult, national chauvinism!!
What the Left and the progressive forces did? In this election too, they joined the rest of the parties to ‘strengthen’ parliament, which before starting this time, we knew was full of corrupts, criminals and rapists, which is going to make ‘law’ for us, as in the past, so that we behave and let the Corporations exploit us peacefully!

Ha, ha, the above paragraph sounds so simple and silly to be true, but there is no other explanation to tell us why we are so poor, unemployed and humiliated every day despite India having massive natural resources and being advanced technologically? Yet, to demolish this simple system, where we are exploited daily and in very simple as well as complicated way, though not impossible, we have to follow extremely complicated, dangerous and difficult path that is revolution. Can you imagine, it was AAP, which was fighting for only a corruption free society, fighting to make Capitalism pure, free it from its cronyism, there was such a hue and cry, state machinery, corporations, media went against it, Congress, BJP and other allies joined together, its members were abused, kicked and even murdered. What will happen if there is genuine revolution, where people were to rise to take over the power by force, demolish existing state and its wings, and expropriate the Corporations and others who had been expropriating them so far!!

People are deceived again as usual, though this deception cost much more than in past and as a result people will be ‘punished’ accordingly by planned inflation, corruption!

Whatever, this rise of people has seen its apex, now only down slide has to follow! Revolutionary tide does not wait for some party or leaders to exploit it!! Anna and others are history now. AAP may save some of the fire and the glory of people’s rise by leading them for a better society. Final analysis is that people were losers and their loss will bring out many lessons for future generations to learn as always happens!  
Say no to Reform, yes to Revolution!
